All of a sudden, when trying to connect to https://fmoviesz.to/, I get this error:

any workaround?

Can you try with a temp basedir please? Eg from a terminal: qutebrowser -T https://fmoviesz.to/

It's loading fine for me in a temp basedir with Qt WebEngine 5.15.15, and on may main Qt 6.7 instance. So it could be something to do with your settings (like a custom user agent header).

qutebrowser -T https://fmoviesz.to/

worked.
Thanks but, could you explain what am I doing wrong?
I didn't change qutebrowser configuration and, when i got the error, even tried with a fresh install.

I'm afraid not, I don't know what the cause is. But since it works in other situations it seems like it's related to your setup.

You can check qute://configdiff/ to see any config you have changed.
Beyond that I would look at clearing cookies, local storage and service workers via the developer tools (bound to wi).

Thanks,
My problem is now that if I start quetbrowser with the -T option it works with cloudflare, but I get the usual 'browser not allowed' erro when i try to login on google.
I tried to change the user agentbut no dice.
If I load qutebrowser with my old configuration, it's the other way around, google works but not cloudflare based websites.
I checked qute://configdiff/ but still couldn't find what determines the behavior.

It could just be the old webengine version you are using.
You might have to try installing in a virtualenv as explained here: https://qutebrowser.org/doc/install.html#_installing_dependencies_including_qt

You'll get a newer Qt version in that (so it won't use your system one), the only downside is that it won't have proprietary video codecs (eg patent encumbered ones). Also I guess it won't show up in desktop application menus etc I guess?

Can you show your :config-diff with the affected version?

Here's the :config-diff of the version I use that doesn't work with cloudflare

content.headers.user_agent = "Mozilla/5.0 ({os_info}; rv:90.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/90.0"

Don't do that. Pretending that you are Firefox with a browser that's actually Chromium breaks various websites (and will also make you quite uniquely fingerprintable).

[maccagnan]

The default user engine:
Mozilla/5.0 ({os_info}) AppleWebKit/{webkit_version} (KHTML, like Gecko) {qt_key}/{qt_version} {upstream_browser_key}/{upstream_browser_version} Safari/{webkit_version}
Doesn't work with google.
What else should I use?

[The-Compiler]

Don't set it globally. Should be enough to just set it for accounts.google.com as per #5182, though I'm not sure why the default workaround built into qutebrowser 2.3.1 isn't working for you. Also see #7427.

[maccagnan]

I'll try that. Thanks for the support. Awesome job with Qutebrowser, it's by far my favorite browser.
